Kinkoo Reviews

First let me say it is hard enough to find a good dating app. On top of that throw in the BDSM world.
The design of Kinkoo has great potential. But potential is NOT enough.
Kinkoo is first off, flooded with males. Which is to be expected, but there is not enough filter options to remove an... Show more d separate them from each other. If you are looking for a sub then you should be able to just click that option. Especially if you pay for Kinkoo . There should also be more required fields of every kind. BDSM is very specific in the wants and needs categories. Please make it simple to pair the Dom with the sub. The apps filters are just too broad. Also, I should not be getting request from Dom Females, if I am not looking for that, and on top of that, from ones across the country. BDSM is physical in nature. I’m not looking for a pen pal.
Kinkoo is also crawling with Bots/ Scammers they flood your inbox to a point that it becomes a chore to block and remove them all. The apps dev team need to create a better system to stop this. PINs and verification codes should be mandatory, along with certifications of the photo kind. Which looks to be in place for the most part, but has lots of holes and none I want to fill.
Subscription to Kinkoo should provide peace of mind and better controls and connection options. But now I feel like I just gave them my money. I will be asking for a refund. I expect my money back.

Kinkoo is absolutely FLOODED with bots and Indians who are trying to scam you. Devs need to filter through accounts better and troubleshoot this. There’s an option to ‘verify’ your account which involves you taking a photo of yourself- First with your hand up, making the ‘Ok’ sign 👌🏼, then a pie... Show more ce of paper with ‘this app’ written on it. I’ve seen accounts with their ‘Verified’ photos being very obviously taken off of a computer screen (of a picture of someones facebook for example), or it being a completely different person than the photos shown above; i.e. Old men using accounts with young women as their main photos which is absolutely ridiculous and disgusting. Literally every single account that has messaged me has been a bot/scammer/pervert pretending to be someone else. I have 72 messages. Until this app makes it mandatory to verify your account and they actually make sure it’s the same person in their photos and a genuine selfie, I will not be using Kinkoo and I have deleted it. I’m guessing all of these ratings are fake because
1. I highly doubt 16,000 people would rate Kinkoo let alone use it
2. I’m seeing close to 5 stars and if anyone is having an experience anywhere near close to mine, they would not rate this a five star app.
Fix this monstrosity this app. I had high hopes and it fell hard. It has so much potential and it’s being ruined by catfish.

I guess if you wanna be slave to a mistress/ goddess then it might be for you, bc there sure are a lot of eager dommes looking for subs and slaves, which means there must be a lot of equally eager subs or neither of them would would be there. Right? As far as I can tell after a month of the VIP mem... Show more bership, that’s all this place is good for. And all dating apps have their fake profiles and scammers that the devs don’t do anything about bc keeping them boosts their membership and increases their daily user average. But this place seems especially saturated with fakes and scams, *AND* they’re using some of the most famous contemporary porn stars on the planet for their profile photos. Like, come on, scammer guy from Albania. You’re on an app filled with sex freaks. You don’t think we know who Mia Malkova is? That’s actually why I gave it one star. The only enjoyment I actually got from Kinkoo was from trolling scammers. Oh! It’s also probably good if you’re into feet. Lots of feet pics. Don’t get me wrong, if you want your toes sucked; I’m on it. But feet guys? I dunno… I never saw a set of toes I’d wanna get fin-dommed for. Y’all do y’all, though. Anyway. One star. Someone please make a safe and reliable kink app bc the spectrum is vast and this one really only caters to like, 3.

Whoever is giving Kinkoo stars is making money off of it. The search functions do NOT allow you to specify correctly orientation bdsm, for instance, “Dominant” is considered a fetish that you may be interested in or someone you are looking for may be interested in, but you can only search for it l... Show more ike it were a fetish, rather than an orientation. So you end up getting a grab bag of people from all different “fetishes” when they are spectrum or orientation based.
Additionally, the site is completely overrun with scammers and professionals looking for cash, you get thirty messages a day from people all over the world with their little schtick trying to part you from your dollars. “sorry I’m looking for a date with someone nearby.” “Oh that’s ok hun as long as you’re a true submissive you can pay my flight.” “No thank you.” “Oh you’re insane good luck [insert insult]”. I’m in a large city in the US and there was not a single person in my area looking to connect. There is no “last online” on profile so you might be flipping through a stack Tinder-style of people that haven’t been on in over a year.

Kink dating remains a nightmare - get out to a munch in your area or post in classifieds on FL.

Kinkoo is nothing but bots and scams. I’m not even exaggerating. I can’t count how many “mistresses” aka bots messaging me to “submit” to them, especially when it says on my profile that is not my preferred dynamic. Or there is someone trying to bring you to another app to talk to scam you. It’s g... Show more otten so bad that the developers implemented a pop up to automatically report fake profiles or others seeking compensated dating. You can’t search for people nearby, see who viewed your profile or notification when you get a match unless you pay a premium. Overall you can’t even write a bio. Every profile you see 90% of the time is across the country. And any profile from a real person has been abandoned long ago. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY ON THIS BROKEN APP. The devs know this app is a ghost ship and is casting the net to capture people who misguidedly pay a premium for the most basic functions of any other dating or kink app. It’s apparent that it’s just a platform for them to lazily generate income.

I never ever write reviews, but I felt like I needed to warn people about this. They must’ve paid for reviews because there is no reason why they should be rated this high.

So let me start off with the most irksome part of Kinkoo. They remove female user’s pictures that are completely normal, not suggestive, and way more innocent than their example photos of “pictures you can upload here” and all of their examples are based on what a woman can’t upload, but guys can ... Show more pose suggestively with next to nothing on their entire bodies. It’s a double standard. It’s supposed to be a dating app for kinky people, but everyone on there seems to be just trying to hook up, and you have to upgrade to a subscription to use ANY of the features. Do you want to be shown people only in your area because that’s how dating works? this app doesn’t think so. It only shows local people if you’re a paid member. You can’t use any search features if you don’t buy Kinkoo . So you think, maybe I’ll just surf around the many people from other states until I find one from my area! Wrong. I counted. Each time it took over fifty viewed profiles to actually find someone even as close as a state away from my location. So if you want to meet someone in California, set your location to North Carolina! You’ll get dozens with every scroll.

I strongly advise people to keep away from Kinkoo!!! Its a waste of time and full of fake people. Iv spoken to about 5 “women” and none of them were real. First of all its 2019, who in the blue hell referrers to another person as “Dear”? (ex. Hello dear, how are you dear, good morning/ night dear)... Show more This isn't the 1940s-1950s no one uses the word “dear” as a term of endearment. Not unless their your grandparents, and even still. 2, a few women i spoke to sent several different pics all claiming its really them, probably forgetting the previous pics they sent and thought id forget. And one sent me multiple pics giving me their word it was them, then one day while i was watching porn, i found a video of that person, i then compared the porn star to the pics and they were the same person. Oh and lets not forget how they all have “ issues with their phone” and you try talking on the phone and get nothing but dead air, and lastly they all asked for money one wanted money for “medicine “ the others wanted money for a phone card or gift card. So i would suggest keeping away. Cause if there are real people out there, i havt found them yeh.

The only reason I’m giving this two stars instead of one is because I suspect this may not be the developers’ fault, just some bad behavior running through the community. Still, I have to rate it based on its ability to deliver what the user is looking for, which, from what I’ve seen, is not very g... Show more ood.

In spite of specific warnings prohibiting users from requesting money or charging for companionship, meetups, etc, most of the users I have met through Kinkoo do just that, and then they act surprised when you take issue with it. Given that I am here looking for a genuine, personal, and yes, kinky relationship, to find that this behavior is this rampant in spite of warnings to the contrary is a huge disappointment. Maybe this is naive of me, but prohibitions from the admins notwithstanding, I would think that a community depending on being “safe, sane, and consensual” would at least respect this and be willing to play by the (presumably) agreed upon rules.

If it were a few bad apples, I suppose I could ignore it. But since it seems that everyone here is doing it, that’s quite a different story.

So I’ll start with the pros so I don’t slam the hell out Kinkoo.
Pros- Good layout. I like the ability to pick roles and search for roles as well. It has a good way of “swiping” like tinder but also can just see the people in the area. But this is where it ends with the good stuff.
Cons- You... Show more can send a MAX of 5 messages without a vip upgrade. You can’t search your area or specific regions without the upgrade either. Oh and good luck meeting anyone on Kinkoo either Because I decided to front the money to maybe have a chance of getting into the scene a bit more only to be bombarded with bots and scams. Out of 78 mutual matches.. 3 WERE REAL PEOPLE!!! Hell you can even tell the ones trying to scam you even if they’re “verified” because whoever is on the account took a picture on a screen of the person in a correct position. Don’t waste your money like I did. Hopefully I can find another way into the scene because Kinkoo definitely isn’t it

I went into this thinking it would be like tinder or bumble, but that was not it at all. The one month membership was outrageous (and you need it to use a lot of features.) Most messages I received were spam, and it pings notifications for EVERYTHING. I don’t know if I had the in app settings wrong... Show more , but ever single time someone viewed my profile or liked me I got a notification, and I ended up turning them off because I was getting upwards of 40 an hour. A lot of the profiles I looked at had absolutely no idea what they wanted or even what they were getting in to, but claimed to be “experienced”. I don’t think the actual app setup itself is bad, just that the inside bits aren’t quite up to what I expected. Again, the amount of spam and fake profiles was astounding. Yes, they have a verification system in place, but it doesn’t seem to do much good especially since if you buy the membership, you don’t have to do the verification. Most of the spammers had the membership.

It’s a great concept and the fact that it’s free is great. The UI is simple, easy to navigate, and uses some of the best features of other sites such as swiping on who you like as Tinder does.
The issues I’ve noticed, I have a hard time just getting Kinkoo to open it crashes as soon as my Touc... Show more h ID is accepted usually about 5/6 times before I either get frustrated and give up or it does let me in. That has to be my biggest complaint
The amount of bots on Kinkoo are pretty bad but I’ve noticed that with a lot of dating apps. They message you and tell you they’re looking for a sugar baby and then give you a phone number to text. I had one instance where a kid who was 16 was on Kinkoo as well. I think you just need to use some common sense when communicating online
I understand the need to verify accounts and it’s great that it does, I just don’t like giving my government ID with my home address to a site who’s TOU aren’t exactly ensuring my privacy. I think the picture with Kinkoo name on it should be sufficient.

As you’ve probably seen from other reviews Kinkoo is overflowing with scammers/blackmailers. You can tell you’re dealing with one because they’ll refuse to have a real conversation with you and instead ask what you’re into. Afterwards they’ll immediately try and get you to connect with them on ano... Show more ther platform like Kik, Google Hangouts, or via email. The reason they want your email/social media is to then screenshot your confessed kinks, look up your social media connections (family/friends), and then threaten to tell them about your kinks unless you send them a payment.

To make matters worse, Kinkoo won’t let you do any form of filtering (not even searching in your area) to protect yourself unless you upgrade to the pro version. This suggests the developer intentionally lets these scammers run rampant to pressure people into paying.

So far about 80-90% of the people I’ve spoken with on Kinkoo are scammers that use this exact worn tactic. Be very careful if you choose to try Kinkoo.

So, I’ve been on Tinder, Bumble, Hinge, etc. I’ve been on plenty dating sites except for plenty of fish. I refuse to join that site. But I was curious about Kinkoo and decided to download it just to see what it’s about. I would say that there are a couple of pros and cons. Mostly cons but hey, I’l... Show more l mention that I did meet someone off Kinkoo and I don’t know if I would call it a relationship but something is definitely building between the two of us. Now the cons of Kinkoo is that there are a bunch of fake sugar daddy profiles, hardly any real or active profiles and you need to have premium to get the best overall experience on Kinkoo. A loophole is the verification feature and that can help find other people that either have premium or are also verified. I would say watch out for people who aren’t truly in the BDSM community. There are some fakes there who are just into the thrill and have no knowledge about it. Overall, I give Kinkoo three stars. I found someone and I’m grateful for that but Kinkoo could be better. Also, why is premium $13? 🤣🤣

There’s a place to write your profile, which I’ve done in depth and yet no one seemed to have paid attention to it. It became so frustrating that I finally told one guy off and told him if he bothered to read it he’d know I wasn’t for him. Well, he said there’s nothing written in my “about me” sect... Show more ion. I asked the next guy if he could see my about me section and he also told me there was nothing written. I’m tired of getting 100 messages (one liners or one word) from people who if they could see what I wrote would know we are not a match. So that’s really frustrating.

It would also be nice to have the ability to not see profile from people that live on the other side of the world. I get that some people like to have long distance or even simply virtual relationships .. I don’t.

There’s so much room for improvement here & I hope it happens before I simply delete the account. Oh and don’t bother to email them through their “contact us” form because they don’t answer (or haven’t yet ... a week later). If they answer, I’ll update my review

There is no way you can effectively use Kinkoo, for free, to connect with anyone in your area. The default free use is more or less a sampling. You can swipe left or right to match with people, and everyone declares what their kinks/interests are in there profile.

The problems are that you ... Show more have to pay a subscription fee to gain full access to Kinkoo . If you don’t you can not focus your search on the local area. I am seeing people from every corner of the USA right now. That’s not really the problem though. The problem that makes the free version simply a sample of Kinkoo is that you can literally only send 5 messages. Total. After that you are prompted to upgrade. They say it’s an effort to cut down on bots/scammers. I imagine this could work for that purpose, but it’s hard to say since I literally sent 5 messages then couldn’t anymore.

I imagine I will look for another app, but if you don’t mind subscribing to try out the full version, then go ahead. I think Kinkoo has potential, I just can’t be certain. I wish they had ads, so I wouldn’t have to pay for general use.

However, you only are allowed to send ONE message. That’s it. Unless you want to pay the subscription. Also, Kinkoo claims to make this one message rule about minimizing scammers/spammers; BUT THATS ALL IVE SEEN. Even some verified profiles were a bit sketch. Kinkoo could be awesome and I’d love ... Show more see it take off, however… the bots/scammers/spammers/people there to only sell their body, kill Kinkoo and rob any one trying to find someone of that opportunity; as well as the developers with pay walls and super restrictive access. Also in the terms of agreement for all of you reading and talking about it… they said “We have no obligation to provide support for the service...”Quite the “support team” there.

P.S. Almost forgot to add the worst photo verification tactic I have ever seen in my life. For their photo verification to work, you have to BLINK for the camera to take a picture…. Do you have any idea how difficult that can be?? ESPECIALLY when Ik this half-one-eye-opened-blurry-blackout-drunk-acid-trip-gone-wrong version of myself is on my PROFILE so everyone can see THAT’S what we are supposed to look like. I’d like a button or a timer for that to say less.

I love the general process of Kinkoo, it’s a lot like tinder but even more free. I really like how you get a new set of likes every 2 hours and I hope it stays that way. The only problems I have are the massive amount of notifications Kinkoo sends and the scammers. Perhaps limit notifications to ... Show more only relating to when you match and when someone likes you and when you receive a message. As for the scammers, verification should 100% BE REQUIRED before a profile can start liking people. Kink people totally understand safety so they shouldn’t have a problem it would weed most if not all the scammers and phony accounts. I’d really like a reply from the devs to know my concerns are acknowledged. :-)

All the dating sites claim free registration, and, true, you can get your info out there for free But what good does that do you when you can’t read messages from those who are attracted to you or you can’t send a message to those you wish to contact? You have to pay for these privileges and often ... Show more you have to commit for a minimum of 3 months or one year. And they are not cheap. If I think I’m going to still need a site for a whole year, I’m pretty sure the dating site isn’t my problem.
this app says it is free and lives up to that claim. You can chat and contact your choice immediately and see if you fit. I’m sold!
One thing the site could improve on is being less ambiguous on how you describe what you are interested in. I honestly don’t know if I’m describing myself or describing what I’m looking for. That’s why I see so many people labeling their interests as Dominant and Submissive at the same time.

There are real people yes! But 99% of the time you’ll be getting texts from scammers. People with the little golden diamond and clearly fake profile pictures. Offering weird stuff or trying to get you to text a phone number or link to some money account. It’s really frustrating because my inbox has... Show more LITERALY within 1 WEEK 36 MESSAGES from SCAMMERS! Like what... I wish Kinkoo had ID verification. I wish you could filter the online people for people who are close to you and not just people online in freaking the other side of the United States. I don’t like the flower gifting system that much because it makes girls or boys want to get them and encourages a “sugar daddy” and “sugar mommy” system that’s not healthy at all of anyone. Lastly but not least I’ve been paying “premium” for a while now even before I last downloaded again, and I don’t really get any cool unique or nice features other than being able to use Kinkoo normally so yeah... idk...

There are many, many fakes on there, asking for money. Even when they are verified, most of them seem to be looking for sugar daddies or something pertaining to money! So why give it five stars? Because it had great potential! After dozens upon dozens upon dozens of messages from either fakes or ru... Show more de, snobbish I’m-promise-you-the-world men, I met a real Master who is now the love of my life and 24/7 Dom. We are due to get married this Oct. I feel that if Kinkoo required everyone to be verified it would probably help greatly, which would be an easy fix. Your profile itself if simple yet to the point. They take out naked pics, which is good. There are ways to be sexy without showing your prvts. As we are into poly and seeking another sub/slave to join Master’s household, we went back on this app but sadly it seems to be a no go with the endless fakes. Maybe we just got lucky the first time, which is good enough for us. As much negative as their is on this website, I got the best positive I could get. So five stars.

Kinkoo has the potential to be great, but I find issues in how things are executed and the lack of care placed in the use of the user.
First, I believe Kinkoo should make it mandatory for everyone to verify their profiles, for that will stop the use of stock photos and fake profile pictures. ... Show more This leads me to my next point. Kinkoo is filled with scammers. I constantly have people hitting me up for me to be their sugar baby, but my profile has that nowhere in it. It all just screams scam. And when I do report people for scamming, this app never handles it and the profiles are still there. You would think that a dating app would be a little more observant of things like that. Not to mention that half of Kinkoo is filled with sex workers or people who just want your money. Do better this app. Do better. Also, I keep getting contacted by the exact same scammers, which means all you are doing is deleting the account. What I need is for you to block the IP address and the email that was used as well. Other sites do this and they have less problems

They feel like that means they don’t need to put anything into making the site better. My first day was the only one I received a message from someone I didn’t contact first. 50-70 messages from bots or obvious fake/scams. 30 from maybe real people clearly only attempting online and more importantl... Show more y pay for play. Never mentioned I was a slave but that didn’t stop them from immediately messaging me as though I was looking for that, probably a good 10 times. So many people looking to just sell feet pics. Which brings me to my other huge problem, the creators need to understand, bdsm and feet are not the only two kinks in the world. Bdsm is it’s own thing with its own subsets, and lots of times involves a lifestyle. Fetlife already has bdsm covered, even though it recognizes other kinks/fetishes. Downplay the bdsm for any improvement, add other options, increase user legitimacy, idk if anything short of a complete overhaul will fix this

I want to give Kinkoo a high rating. It covers a great aspect of dating, where other apps ignore. I have chatted with a lot of fascinating women on here and was enjoying it. With that said, here is the problem. I was in a location where the selection of women were seemingly endless. I had my filte... Show more r set for a 50 mile radius. I moved 100 miles away, and now I can not receive any profiles, even when I set it at a 400 mile radius. If you do the math, there should be a ton of overlap. There should be many profiles to view. Instead, I just get a message stating that Kinkoo is new and have to wait.

Kinkoo is next to useless now. I can only chat with the women I met army previously location. I just updated to the newest version a few minutes ago, and it still does not work. PLEASE FIX THIS PROBLEM.

One more point. I am not going to verify my photo by uploading a picture of my driver’s license. A selfie of a special pose is fine, but not sending vital and vulnerable information.

So I had been using Kinkoo for about a week and everything seemed great. I liked how it was set up, kinda like MeetMe but kinkier, but what I didn’t expect was randomly they told me I wasn’t allowed to message people anymore. I thought it was like a temporary thing then they said to message people... Show more , I have to get the VIP. Well, I let my messages build for a few days and then I decided ok I’ll buy the VIP for $15. (It was $17 with tax)
Everything was fine for about 12 hours, I went to sleep and woke up to my account being “temporarily blocked”. No idea why, they said I violated terms which I didn’t do. So now I’m in a fight with them to get my money back almost 5 days later. Still no email, still not been contacted and I’ve sent 3 messages to them. So, for the sake of your money, do not get the VIP because you will be randomly banned for no reason and be out $17. Not the best way to run a business honestly and I know I’m not the only person out there that’s been scammed by Kinkoo.

I loved Kinkoo, even purchased VIP to chat more. Has great features and a lot of lovely people to meet with kinks of all kinds. I have the genuine kink of being a femdomme and FinDomme, all acceptable kinks to most standards. However, when I messages support why my photos were not being seen on th... Show more e feed (I had a friend look for my photos and said they didn’t come up on the feed) they blocked my account for “selling items” when, in my message to them, stated 18 year-old girls photos were being seen and interacted with for selling services but mine, which were flirty, fun posts, were getting taken down. I made some genuine friendships and companions on here and kept them on their to avoid sending personal information. Now, all that is lost and my VIP membership, which has over 2 weeks left on it, is wasted. Sad to say it was great until it wasn’t anymore.

I get 30 to 40 messages a day. All from a bat using the same script. It's easy to identify them if you just take a minute to look at how grainy the pictures are, or to actually read the portfolios. Pronoun usage and run on sentences seem especially hard for them to comprehend. Or even just look at... Show more the ethnicity listed versus girl in the picture the stoke from IG. I report and block all of they still pop up. I did find one real person and they are having the exact same experience. 90 to 95% of the profiles on here are fake and it doesn't look like the Devs are doing anything about it. I've contacted them and there has been no reply. It's easy to say we have over 1 million users when 999,998 of them are fake. Kinkoo has a lot of great potential and I would love to give it five stars but as of right now it needs some attention.

Kinkoo is decent now, but could be better. I would rate 5 stars if a few things were changed.
1. Notifications. Too many and I’m tired of them. I hate waking up to like 35 new ones, and 33 of them are profile views. I don’t care who viewed my profile. Some people do, so can we get an option on ... Show more what kind of notifications we receive?
2. Filtering. Clearly nobody reads profiles. Mine is very detailed and says I’m only interested in women, and my preference/orientation is set to women, yet I still receive messages from men every single day and it’s really annoying. If there was a way to only be viewed/able to be contacted by your preferred gender/s i would love Kinkoo so much more!

This is great app to search people and chat and meet people. I noticed lot of fake people and I have reported them. Lots of female wants to get money wired or wants gift cards and males pretend to be daddy to give out free money.

To get to next level with cyber security with online dating ... Show more app:
You need to setup a third part verify function so everyone can submit drivers license and verify their profile with a 3rd party company.. Once verified you can give them some sort of badge that these are legitimate users. The 3rd party verify does not cost much and the user can pay for it as 1 time fee to get this verified badge.

Any user will pay a 1 time fee of $10 to $15 to get their account verified for the safety of online dating system. No one wants to pay monthly fee.

The goal - you want to make a system where you have only verified people looking at other verified people.. the rest of kinky stuff that we do in bedroom is up the user. This is usually covered by the privacy statement.

Please consider my option and the safety of the male and female dating game
